Surveying with the Jeep

The hill is steeper than it looks in the photograph. There's a special button in the Jeep that allows crawling down the hill without using the brakes. I had to use it here.

It does look pretty steep. It is very handy to be able to get close without just the use of your own two legs. I am working on big survey in the Appalachian Mountains and am considering taking a horse next time. I wonder if that makes all of my horse expenses tax deductible.

Heck yeah it does.

I've heard of a dude in my area that tried using llamas in rugged areas. He didn't know anything about llamas, but as it is with the blossoming of most disasters it seemed like a good idea at the time. Not sure if the tax breaks ever paid off on that.

Get a mule for those steep rugged terrain. I love a horse but a mule is more sure footed and can conquer just about any terrain. They are stubborn though.

Awesome.

A friend had the 4L engine in his stock Jeep and he could engage 4WD, put it in gear, and it would just slowly idle up some really steep hills.
